How to fix it

Do not post or promote it. Remove any AI tool promo whose purpose is undressing or sexualizing real people.

Good to know

Watch for AI 'undress'/'nudify'/'AI kiss' app promos or demos, leaked-nudes framing ('exposing my ex'), and threats to post private images. Survivor stories and awareness content without the images are allowed.
